"I can't promise you that I won't crash, but Fox News will not crash in this interview," Gowdy said, referring to the Twitter Spaces event that had to be shut down and restarted as the system broke.
"If you broke Twitter, my daughter and the Kardashians are going to be very upset with you," Gowdy joked to a smiling DeSantis. On Fox, DeSantis told Gowdy that they had a"huge audience" for his Twitter Spaces announcement —"the biggest they'd ever had" — and that they"did break the Twitter Space," but that he's excited about the"enthusiasm."
